If this is correct, how is the future indicative of patior conjugated: pateor, pateris, patetur, patemur, patemini, patentur? What about "-io" verbs of the third conjugation? I think that I am really only concerned this point with the future indicative, but if there are any other issues this raises please let me know; questions breed questions, lol!

You're right about the conjugations but the future indicative of patior is "patiar, patiēris, patiētur, patiēmur, patiēminī, patientur", as are all third conjugation verbs in the passive (or active, talking about deponents), including "-io" ones.

Ohhhh, that makes sense. The patiar threw me off because of the "a", but 3rd conj fut. 1st person singular ends in -am when active so it makes sense that there would be an a in the passive, duh! Thanks for the correction; I can tell which conjugation the deponent verbs belong to now, hooray!
